Dads old 2000 Silverado K1500 Z71 (a restoration tale)

I love stories like these! Basically a one owner truck in the family since new for 50 or more years when you pass it on.

So fox shocks screwed me again. A number of years ago I bought a set of shocks for an off-road jeep one of the shocks had the valve installed upside down and the shims in the wrong place. So a buddy of mine that worked for fox at the time helped me rebuild them and do it right. Fast forward to today, I decided to splurge for fox shocks on this truck and one of them either has a bad seal or was never charged with nitrogen from the factory.

So I said screw it and put it all back in the box, planning to just return them and go with bilsteins which is what I was originally planning to do. For now I’ll leave the mostly worn out Monroe reflects trucks on there, at least they have some nitrogen left in them.

Almost done with the rear brakes then it’s time to do fluids.

How long and many miles did they last?
